Some times I think if the developers own a lot of the coin, they will have more incentive to make it successful.
It's only a short-term incentive. The real talent is always going to flow towards projects that aren't giant scams (Bitcoin for example) which means you can only ride the wave and pump the price for a few years before the house of cards collapses around you. Good scammers recognise this and move on to the next scam quickly enough.
Anonfile links in OP r broken. Cannot evidence the screenshots. Any other links?
Anonfile is being a piece of shit lately. Thankfully archive.org has saved copies.

https://web.archive.org/web/20140529235502/https://cryptonote.org/whitepaper.pdfI've updated the links in the main post.
so a bunch of cypherpunks/academics/NSA dudes create a tech which is widely recognized to be bullet-proof
market cap a few million bucks
whatever
No Charlie, it's not bullet-proof.the tech has spawned a plethora of copies (all bad except XMR according to thread-starter) worth many millions more. And yet I am supposed to chew out the geniuses benhind CN?? I don't think so
what will XMR offer for future dev? BCN showing the way atm it seems.
Monero is fixing the
huge failings found in the CN protocol.
https://lab.getmonero.org/pubs/MRL-0004.pdfBut that's not really the point of the research. The point is that CN/BCN is a scam that is desperately trying to pretend it's legit, and thats some bullshit right there.
thanks, and thanks for the updated links.
